[Libs-Or] Job Posting: Community Librarian - Teen & New Adult @ Deschutes Public Library (Oregon)

[Chandra vanEijnsbergen]

Are you passionate about teen librarianship and supporting new adults' transition into adulthood? Are you enthusiastic and have great ideas about the future of outreach and community engagement for public libraries? Have you been looking for an active, dynamic public library team? Then we're looking for YOU. Deschutes Public Library is accepting applications for a Community Librarian to chiefly serve our teen and new adult populations (ages 15-25) with support to our whole Community Librarian team, bilingual in English and Spanish strongly desired. The Library offers a 6% pay differential for fluency in ASL or Spanish, provided those skills are within the position's scope of work.

Our Community Librarians:

  *   Adopt a community engagement mindset and assume leadership roles in developing inclusive and equitable relationships with schools, higher education, community groups, agencies and non-profits that serve teens, new adults and identified target populations.
  *   Plan and deliver programs and services both in branch and out in the community that help teens and new adults transition into adulthood, while also providing more targeted services to an age group that can get lost in traditional library services.
  *   As the teen and new adult expert for the library, this position will also be heavily involved in shaping the future of programs, spaces, and initiatives at DPL and training and supporting paraprofessional staff and branch needs.
  *   Proactively assesses the needs of teens and new adults in Deschutes County and recommends services and resources the library should provide to address those needs.
